The best time to visit Umm El Ros is during the warmer months (spring and autumn), when visibility is usually excellent and the sea is calm. With mild currents, the site is very suitable for both scuba diving and snorkeling. For freedivers, the calm conditions and clear water make it an ideal location for breath-hold exploration, especially in shallower sections. Divers and snorkelers should ensure to observe the marine life without disturbing it. Respecting their natural habitat is crucial for preserving this beautiful dive spot.
